End of the day no side can cover that many injuries in space of a few weeks in one position and not have a drastically weakened backline.


Tbh I'm worried - think we could struggle to hold it together in the run-in with the injuries we've got - hate to say it but can see us ending up with f.u.c.k all because of it despite clearly being the best side int he country this season.
mate the last part of your post has crossed my mind a hell of a lot of late
